Firstly a typical "bad weather day" does not exist with Blokart. If the wind is blowing it is a good day for Blokarting. We only need the slightest of breeze, however, in the unlikely event that there is absolutely no wind on your rental day give us a call prior to coming out. If the wind is too strong for safe sailing we may temporarily close the Blokart track. DriftKarts will not operate in wet conditions.
Ensure steady breezes for the best Blokarting experience.
Choose flexible clothes suitable for active movement and safety gear.
Get familiar with the equipment and safety procedures before racing.
Beginner lessons are available to help newcomers get comfortable on the land sail carts.
